Yesterday's world is a dream
Like a river
That runs through my mind
Made of fields
And the white pebble stream
That I knew
As a child
Butterfly wings in the sun
Taught me all
That I needed to see
For they sang
Sang to my heart
"Oh, look at me
Look at me"
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
Love was the dream of my life
And I gave it
The best I knew how
So it always brings tears
To my eyes
When I think
Of it now
Gone like the butterfly days
And the youth
That I once used to be
But my heart
Still hears a voice
Telling me, "Look
And you'll see"
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
There's no regret that I feel
For the bittersweet
Taste of it all
If you love, there's a chance
You may fly
If you fall
Well, you fall
Rather the butterfly's life
To have lived
For a day and been free
For my heart
Still hears that voice
Telling me, "Look
And you'll see"
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
Free as the wind
Free as the wind
That is the way
You should be
